g35 sedan borla install

Had my borla exhaust installed today and am very happy. I know this wasnt the loudest exhaust when I purchased it but i got it for under 500 new. I was wondering what can i do to make it louder though?? Ive heard stuff about high flow cats and test pipes(resognated and non) im just dont understad what does what and how loud each thing do and what they replace.???????
thanks

HFC's or TP's replace your stock catalytic converters, if you get either one get high flow cats or resonated test pipes.

More importantly, where did you get the exhaust for such a great price?

No, they are located between the exhaust manifold and your new exhaust. Make sure you are smog compliant if you go with test pipes. It should be just a bolt in piece and fairly simple, unless there is rust. FYI, I have read that test pipes emit a funny smell (unburned gas).
